Top Gear UK Car of the year Finalist list !! FiST

[rodmoe]

After much discussion, several heated debates and more than a few veiled threats, 11 have been whittled down to three. Meet the best of the best,
So, the three finalists in our Performance Car of the Year were the Mercedes SLS Black, the Ford Fiesta ST, and the Porsche Cayman S. But who won? Find out at the link…

The Fiesta's neatest tricks are to be clever, but not intimidating; fast, but not scary; fun, but not lethal. The steering is lively, the engine willing, the brakes confident, the laughter genuine. And there is a lot of laughter with this little hatch, meaning that it totally embodies the spirit of Speed Week. There's also a not-inconsiderable amount of change from ?20k, which makes it - for us - the performance-car bargain of the year.

like Richard said in episode 1 about his smile while driving the ST " You cant put a price on that"
